Raw Elementz is the hip-hop fusion dance troupe at Columbia. It was established in 2001 by former Culture Shock dancer Kristin Liu and has since grown to a troupe of about 30 dancers and breakers who practice twice a week. Raw Elementz is well-known for crowd-pleasing performances; these performances include many campus functions, from cultural shows to athletic events, as well as off campus performances. Raw Elementz consistently gets little tastes of everyone's dancing backgrounds as new members join: hip-hop, breaking, popping, locking, house, jazz, street-funk and even ballet. Raw encourages original choreography, as all the choreography that Raw performs is student-created.
Joining Raw Elementz: Auditions are held twice a year, usually in early September and late January. No previous dance experience is required, just come ready to show what you got. There are no set amount of spots on the troupe. Meet members of Raw at the Activities Fair that kicks off the beginnng of the year, or if you’ve missed it, email rawelementz@columbia.edu.
